Hi, I never keep my chameleons in the cage all day long. I have several fica trees that are very large and keep one in every room. Once the chameleons have had their 4 hours of light, I allow them to roam the house and they go to their favorite fica tree and climb. They need excercise and can...

I believe that, but that’s my *thinking* is that it is a survival mechanism, but not necessarily optimal. I feel more comfortable with my chameleon getting most of their water through the GI tract because I feel that would have less risk. Ventilation is beneficial with misting because the...

Are you increasing humidity at night? If you are, then you need to have cooler temps of below 68F. If you are not increasing humidity at night, you do not need it to be so cold. Think of it this way - you want warm dry days and cool wet nights. The ice you wouldn’t put inside the enclosure. You...

I will type my responses in bold. He is a male veiled chameleon approximately one year old. I’ve had him for 7ish months. I handle him usually once a week to check on his eyes and general health. He eats 10 medium Dubia roaches every other day that are gut loaded with potatoes or any other...

You may want to put a towel or blanket at the bottom of his enclosure to pad your chameleon if he falls again. Watching chameleons growing old at the end of their lives can be difficult. Best Regards Jeremy A. Rich

Yes I have a total screen so I put a shower curtain on the back and one side. I don't know if this was the best way, but I just cut it to size and duct taped it in spots onto the edges of the screen on the outside. She does climb it some, but not as much as she did at first. I noticed she wanted...

I still would not advice anyone to do this because of the bad things that can happen. What you do may work for you and your chams but in a forum you have to remember others may not do things the exact same way or using the same products you use. This thread shows just one example of the horror...

Chameleon Info: • My Chameleon - Daryl is a male veiled chameleon who has been in my care for about a month now. He is an adult but his exact age is unknown • Handling - I handle him once or twice a day, ONLY when he shows signs of wanting to be out or if I just need some cham emotional support...

The coughing sound has only happened two or three times in the time that I have had him, and the yawning also is not very often at all, just something I noticed. The mulch and soil is what came in this reptile soil packet that the pet store recommended to me, and when his feeders are on the...

You definitely want to start reducing your cutie’s diet. I like to do things like that gradually. So, if you’ve been giving her say 12 feeders daily, bring her down to 10 daily for a week or so…then 8 and when you get to 6 feeders, go from daily to every other day. She’s still got some growing...

Unfortunately, I doubt that there really is much that you can do. If he is selling 10 or however many animals he has, he’ll continue to keep and sell them as is. If you are a very tactful person, you can try to start a pleasant conversation with him and nicely educate him on better ways to keep...

Hello everyone, I’ve been racking my brain the past few days and can’t seem to come up with the best plan. I have 2 new Ambanja Panther Chameleons. I’ve built their 2x2x4 diy cages and have them out on the inside of my screened in patio, I live in FL. Their cages are indirect sunlight and I...

Your Chameleon My guess is he is 2-3 months old, and he's been in my care since the 16th of this month. Handling - How often do you handle your chameleon? I have to handle/interact with him directly twice a day to administer ointment into his little eye. Feeding - What are you feeding your cham...

This is going to be a lot to take in, please keep asking questions if you have them, we're here to help your little made thrive! :D Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon- Panther, male, 6 mos old. He has been here for almost two weeks. Handling- i’ve had him out twice. I only take him out if he wants...

Chameleons are a bit like people; sometimes they have good days, sometimes they have bad days. Somedays they'll run up to you as soon as you open the door for food, others they'll give you the side eye until you put the food down and walk away. It's rare for a vailed chameleon to really take to...

Im so sorry for the misunderstanding, I mean WITHOUT D3, so he is getting a little sprinkle of calcium with no D3, and once per month the reptivite wit D3. The other thing is the ice cubes, so I got 2 fans on the top of the cage, one getting fresh air to the inside of the cage and the other...

I’ve posted before about Aquaman’s free range in our bedroom and I’ve noticed his grip is considerably stronger. I’m his tree person that when he says “let me out”, I open his cage and put him on his branch by the table. In photos I’ve noticed his legs have become thicc. I was worried in the...

I closed the blinds and it seemed to help. I also bought some crickets and just put them in his cage so he would have something to hunt. He seemed calm for a couple days after that. I switched the grow light and the UV so the UV light was in the back of his cage, and that also seemed to make him...

Just want to give a little additional feedback and suggestions. :) Yo read your thing I do apperciate it the light is liner sorry I probably should have put that and I do gut load with fluckers cricket feeder. I think most of us started using this in one form or another. Unfortunately, while...

Welcome to the forums! Hope I can help you out. As far as what you can do without vet intervention: There are a few issues with the enclosure. Our chameleons grow like weeds and need a minimum of a 2ftx2ftx4ft enclosure. There are screen options like the zoomed XL reptibreeze enclosure that are...
